Based on Buongiorno's theory and Cauchy equations of motion, a model is developed to examine homogeneous–heterogeneous reactions in boundary layer flow of a nanofluid over a stretching sheet in which a uniform magnetic field is added perpendicular to the flow direction. We apply the shooting method and the fourth-order Runge–Kutta integration to obtain multiple solutions of nonlinear ordinary differential equations with various physical parameters. Results show that nanofluids play significant roles in the procedures of homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions, which may help maintain the stability of chemical reactions. In addition, the terms related to Maxwell fluid either have effect on stability of the system; furthermore, the increasing elastic and magnetic parameters delay the appearance of bifurcation points.
